Access to starting point:
From Trbovlje or Laško we drive to Hrastnik, and then we continue driving in the direction »Hrastnik center and village Čeče«. We follow this road to the spot, where we notice signs for ski slope Rajska dolina. Here we turn right and then already after few meters park on one of the numerous parking lots in Hrastnik.
Path description:
From the center of the Hrastnik we continue on the asphalt road in the direction of village Boben and Čeče. The road which soon leaves Hrastnik and is then ascending by the stream Boben we follow to the beginning of the village Boben. At this spot, we continue right, we cross a bridge and we continue the ascent in the direction of Kal and Mrzlica on the road which behind the houses changes into at first gently sloping cart track. Cart track quickly passes into the forest, where it is ascending by the pleasant stream and then turns to the left and steeply ascends.
The path soon passes out of the forest on ample grassy slopes, on which we are then ascending on occasionally a bit poorly visible footpath. Higher, the path brings us to an asphalt road in hamlet Ravne, through which we continue in the direction Kal. A little further signs for Kal point us to the right on a rough road which quickly changes into a pleasant footpath, on which we are then ascending on a partly grassy slope.
Eventually, the path brings us on a road which we follow only good 100 meters to the left turn, in the middle of which a marked footpath branches off to the right. We continue the ascent on at first a wide cart track which in a moderate ascent, which mostly runs through the forest brings us to the spot, where from the right side, the path over Klobuk joins.
We continue left, we cross the road and we are then ascending on a marked footpath which ascends on a panoramic grassy slope. Higher, the steepness decreases and the path joins the road which we then follow all the way to the mountain hut on Kal.
